To support the University of Central Florida’s (UCF) new Trevor Colbourn Hall Building, VHB collaborated with the project civil engineer to develop conceptual landscape design that would promote a cohesive and inviting landscape that aligns with UCF's dynamic campus atmosphere. The design involved articulating open spaces, parking layouts, pedestrian pathways, and roadway configurations. We developed concepts for preferred building entry and opportunities to incorporate landscaping and stormwater options, focusing on enhancing pedestrian connections, service zones, gathering plazas, and entry features.
VHB's collaborative and detailed design approach emphasized the integration of existing plant life, along with strategic recommendations for the placement of new trees and native plants. To guide project delivery and tie together existing landscapes, parking areas, and pedestrian walkways, VHB developed hand-drawn sections and proposed specialty paving materials and site elements, such as fences and furniture to enrich the campus environment.
